16 Ways to Build a Webflow Login Page

Duncan Hamra, the cofounder of Memberstack made this beautiful subscription login UI featuring a textured background, rounded button, show/hide password, and styled form inputs. It’s a free Webflow template you can use with Memberstack’s pre-built UI.

For an alternate design, Duncan also made this ‘Splitscreen Signup’ that you can clone and use on your site. This form allows you to login with Google, Facebook, or with your email.

Now that we’ve gone through 16 awesome login ideas ✅ let’s take a look at the options we have for exporting code to the backend.

Webflow Login Functionality

One of the main issues designers and developers have with Webflow is the inability to add login/signup functionality to their sites without integrating with another platform. During the No-Code Conference, Webflow announced the adding of Users in Webflow, which will allow you to sell paid memberships and access to gated content.  Webflow memberships is now in beta, with no release date as of yet, however, an announcement about memberships will be made on June 30, 2022 from 10am - 11am PST on this special livestream.

Today, custom login/signup functionality is not natively supported on Webflow, and requires an engineer to code, or to use custom integrations, like Memberstack. 

We’ll take a look at the different types of login/signup functionality you can use with Webflow, and how to achieve your desired outcome.

Exporting code to create custom backend

For those times when Webflow hasn’t quite filled all your needs, you can still get your desired effects with custom code, integrations, or plugins. If you have a paid account plan with Webflow, you can export your project’s code from inside the designer, to be hosted anywhere. See this quick tutorial on how to export your code
